《The Battle Mage》Dark arts
Advertisement
After eating breakfast I started making my way to the stadium, and after a few minutes, I heard a scream so I stayed low and followed the source of the voice.I found 3 people kicking an archery student until he was teleported away, they were clad in black and were all wearing a skull mask.
This is my first time seeing a student from the dark arts academy, their arts required blood be it the enemies or theirs. After using blood is a sacrifice, they will receive a boost in physical strength and magic. It's better to not get close to these people so I tried to leave but...
"*sniff* brother I smell someone, " said one of them as he looked at where I was hiding.The man in the middle brought out a knife and threw it at me, having no choice I stood up and leaped away while the last guy pursued me.
He came at me with both hands wielding a claw so I evaded his onslaught and found a chance to stab him with an [ice lance].When he stopped, he was bleeding from his shoulders, waist, and leg while I had a few tears on my magus uniform.
"Hehe this guy's good even scratchy could only tear his clothes, "said dog nose to the man in the middle
"Heh at least now I can satisfy my hunger," said the man in the middle while licking his lips. These people have a screw loose
"Ok let's all go at him," said the war freak while dog-nose and scratchy nodded
war freak took out a two-handed axe and charged while dog-nose took out a small bow gun and spread some liquid in the arrows.Warfreak jumped up and smashed his axe on me, I jumped back but scratchy jumped out from behind war freak and started attacking me again.

I felt something behind so I did a backflip and watched as an arrow oozing with a black liquid pass me, war freak swung his axe on the spot where I was gonna land so I used an [ice lance] and stuck in the ground as a support and pushed myself up and did another backflip.
Scratchy chased me again after I landed and war freak jumped up swinging his axe downward, I touched the ground and erected an [ice wall] which hit war freak's stomach throwing him off course and landing on his back meanwhile scratchy had to go around the wall.
I used this chance to throw an [ice lance] on a spot by the bushes and throwing the other one at another spot,dog-nose moved to the sides where I precisely threw the second [ice lance] he was cleanly hit in the chest before being teleported him away. I used this chance to use [Mud pit] and around the ground by the edge of the [Ice wall]
Dog-nose was gone while scratchy finally managed to catch up to me but fell to a trap I set up earlier and fell to my [Mud pit], using my right arm swirling with fire I punched him and sent him crashing to a nearby tree and was teleported away.
Warfreak broke through the [ice wall] and swung his axe at me so I jumped backward and used [fire ball], he was hit in the chest and was pushed back but he started charging at me again.
"Take this! [Whirlwind axe!] " he screamed as he spun towards me, my [ice wall] was still on cooldown so I used [fire stream] making his [whirlwind axe] a firestorm with him in the center.
He stopped spinning a few seconds later but his arm was charred black, he looked at me while he took out a knife and stabbed his arms before chanting.

The blood that flowed out turned into a magic circle
"Hahaha you forced me to do this! " war freak screamed as his body started growing to twice his size.
He took his axe with one hand started swinging it at me, I moved to the side and stabbed a newly formed [ice lance] at his waist. He turned around and swung his axe downward again but I already moved to the side and kept stabbing his back [ice lance], he was clearly annoyed.
"Stand still little bug! Argh! [Whirlwind axe!]" He roared and started spinning, I jumped back while pressing my left hand on the ground and my right arm overflowing with ice cold mist.
When he was near me, I raised an [Ice wall] at his feet, throwing him up in the air and pointed my right hand at him using [Ice giant's strike], a giant arm pushed his entire body and pushed him up even higher but it wasn't enough to take him. I raised both my hands and used [fire stream] roasting him mid-air.
"Damn it, you little piece of shit I will remember this! " he screamed as he vanished.
*ping* " The Dark arts University has been wiped out 15/100 teams left"
It was over, so I started looking for a place to hide. I was bit exhausted, the last fight was a bit flashy and loud so it must've attracted a few teams, I still had 3/4 my Hp and half my mana but it will not be good if I keep encountering enemy teams it will become an endless fight.
I found a dead tree which had a hollow body good enough for two people, it wasn't obvious so I went inside and ate lunch.
------------------------------
"Alisa... What do you think? " a young man with long ears asked the girl.
"Clint... It was 3 vs 1... " the girl named Alisa also had long ears but her face was covered with a hood.
"So who won? " Clint asked Alisa.
"The side who only had 1 person... " Alisa replied while doubting herself.
"Are you sure? " Clint knew no one else who could fight 3 students from the dark arts and still win.
"Yeah, see that marking there? It was a circle for a blood circle and that Ice lance stuck to the tree, someone was impaled there while that broken tree there, another must've crashed his body there and finally that giant ice hand and flame stream we saw earlier must've finished off the one who used a blood sacrifice" Alisa said as she looked at spot where there was still traces of Ice.
" A dual elemental mage! " Alisa said as she understood something.
"Tch I wanted to avenge our fallen teammates but someone got to them first," Clint said as he gripped his bow tightly.
"We got two of them, we should be satisfied with that" Alisa also wanted to avenge her teammates but the enemies were already taken down.
"Where did the mage go? " Clint had a greedy look on his face.
"North" Alisa answered as she looked at a direction.
"Let's go take him down" Clint wanted some fame so he wanted to take down the dual elemental mage.
"No, we might not be able to take him down. Let's just hide for now and show ourselves when all the other teams had killed each other".But Alisa was more level-headed.
".... Ok" Clint said but deep inside he kept cursing at Alisa.
The two of them started walking away and soon vanished into the forest.

A Sinner's Eden
The Earth of the future is united under a single government, but not all things are well. The shape of the playing field may be changed, but the powerful still rule the weak.And those who do not conform with the rest of society are exiled to another world. A world that not even the technology of the future managed to tame.It should have been humanity's New World but ended up as nothing more than a penal colony. A place where the exiled are sent to die. Motivated by revenge, Magnus sets out on a quest to bring his own justice to his enemies. For that purpose, he is willing to go further than most others.But then he learns that if he truly wishes to change things, he can only find his answers beyond the gate. Having lived most of her life as an exile, Astra is a woman of few interests aside from survival and climbing the ranks of her clan.To achieve those goals, she certainly won't be squeamish when a chance literally falls into her lap, or will she? ——————————————————————————————— I am trying to go with a survival/medieval setting in this one. People from a technologically advanced society are thrown into a world where they can't maintain their tech. They are forced to rely on medieval technology where they have to make do with the limited resources they have and what little of their old technology is still working. Their gene manipulation allows them to have something akin to superpowers, but that doesn't help much against the monsters of their new world. Not sure yet whether sufficiently advanced technology will be discovered later on to count as magic. ——————————————————————————————— Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently, I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur)

Dragon Knight Prophecy
A hero, a dragon, and a love that breaks all bounds. A fantasy story of a man trying to save his homeland from a terrible war by completing a prophecy nobody fully understands. To complete his mission he needs a dragon but the road to the dragon’s lair goes horribly wrong, and when he finally faces the beast he stands alone. A deeply emotional story that deals with pain, regret, betrayal, and failure. Despite it all somehow our heroes discover they need each other and slowly come together. With the help of some dedicated friends they realize their love is special, and go on to forge a new world befitting their unusual union. If you like dragons, romance, a little magic and a lot of war this might be for you. This story eventually evolves into a very loving harem, where the women rely on and love one another just as much as they love our hero. Please note: I am an amateur writer who started this story as a form of therapy while my wife was teetering on the brink of death. Thankfully she survived but by that point I was so committed to telling this story I couldn’t stop. I learned a great deal about writing over time but I am afraid my early chapters were very rough. I have since gone back and begun to edit them, applying the lessons learned and cleaning them up. I hope you will still enjoy the story, as I love sharing it and I can’t imagine a better use of my time. Sexual content.. In seven books I have written two sex scenes, but one of them will be highly edited once I reach them with my rewrite. Overall I imply our characters are sharing their love but don't go into any great detail as to how. So if sexual content bothers you, it is only lightly touched on twice.

The Complete Alchemyst book 2
Continuation of the Alchemyst book 1 Sometimes to be the good guy, you gotta be the bad guy. This is a story about Louis, a guy that was just trying to get along before he got kidnapped and forced to play cook by a Cartel. He's no Heisenberg, however. Now that he's out of Prison and put a beat down on some of the folks that put him away, he's facing the real pressures of Life as a single-person superpower: Everyone wants to use him for their own purposes. Along the way he's met a few girls, some good, some bad. He's looking to save the world, establish an evil empire, secure a future for the people he considers his, and maybe finally kill that damned superhero that started it all. This is not 'the boys'. Not all superheroes or supervillains are evil, The 'super' world is expanding to include aliens, magic, and the children of ancient deities and legends. This is NOT a superhero genre deconstruction. Many heroes truly are heroes, and they don't all need to be destroyed to make a good story, but it does look into the dark side of superpowers and the unreasonable and often contradictory demands placed on exceptional people. Please note that this book has extremely graphic and sometimes gross fight scenes, heroes as villains, villains as heroes, opinionated and often politically incorrect characters, some graphic sex scenes, dad jokes, dirty jokes, realistic depictions of romance and flirting, bondage and dominance themes, and more than a few cuss words when they are really appropriate.
